1. Secure a 3-inch (76mm) servo extension to

the steering servo. Use dental floss to secure the

connectors together. Use a #0 Phillips screwdriver

to remove the servo arm from the servo.



2. Position the elevator servo in the fuselage with

the output of the servo facing toward the elevators.

Use a pencil to mark the locations for the two servo

mounting screws onto the radio tray.



3. Remove the servo and use a pin drill and

1/16-inch (1.5mm) drill bit to drill the two holes

for the servo mounting screws.



4. Place 2–3 drops of thin CA into each hole to

harden the surrounding wood,. This will provide a

harder surface for the screws to bite into, making

them more secure.



5. Secure the elevator servo using the two screws

that were provided with the servo.
